sound/sound_core.c implements soundcore.ko and contains two parts -
sound_class which is shared by both ALSA and OSS and device
redirection support for OSS.  It's always compiled when any sound
support is enabled although it's necessary only when OSS (the actual
one or emulation) is enabled.  This is slightly wasteful and as device
redirection always registers character device region for major 14, it
prevents alternative implementation.

This patch introduces a new config SOUND_OSS_CORE which is selected
iff OSS support is actually necessary and build the OSS core part
conditionally.

If OSS is disabled, soundcore merely contains sound_class but leaving
it that way seems to be the simplest approach as otherwise sound_class
should be in ALSA core file if OSS is disabled but should be in
soundcore if OSS is enabled.  Also, there's also the user confusion
factor.

device_create() is race-prone, so use the race-free
device_create_drvdata() instead as device_create() is going away.

Many struct file_operations in the kernel can be "const".  Marking them const
moves these to the .rodata section, which avoids false sharing with potential
dirty data.  In addition it'll catch accidental writes at compile time to
these shared resources.

Converts from using struct "class_device" to "struct device" making
everything show up properly in /sys/devices/ with symlinks from the
/sys/class directory.

It also makes the struct sound_card to show up as a "real" device
where all the different sound class devices are placed as childs
and different card attribute files can hang off of. /sys/class/sound is
still a flat directory, but the symlink targets of all devices belonging
to the same card, point the the /sys/devices tree below the new card
device object.

Thanks to Kay for the updates to this patch.

This patch contains the scheduled removal of OSS drivers that:
- have ALSA drivers for the same hardware without known regressions and
- whose Kconfig options have been removed in 2.6.17.

All sound/sound_firmware.c contains is mod_firmware_load() that is a legacy
API only used by some OSS drivers.

This patch builds it into an own sound_firmware module that is only built
depending on CONFIG_SOUND_PRIME making the kernel slightly smaller for ALSA
users.

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.

Let it rip!
